What is the member application process?

A:

Interested organizations should begin the process by speaking with the NNAAC Capacity Building Manager to discuss a potential application. The next step is to complete the NNAAC Membership Application. The application can be found at www.nnaac.org. Click on “members” Applications are considered once per year, and must be submitted by August 31 for review at our fall Advisory Board meeting.

Upon receiving the application, NNAAC staff will contact you to discuss your application in further detail and schedule a site visit. After all information is received and the site visit is completed, the application will be turned over the NNAAC Advisory Board for review and a decision on acceptance.

For those nascent organizations that are in the process of development and may not yet meet all the criteria, we encourage you to contact us to discuss how we can be of assistance to you.

Though we work collaboratively with a broad range of organizations in several program areas, the benefits of participation in most programs of the Network is reserved exclusively for members.
